Primes

  • Autopoiesis
    • As Bourgine and Stewart (2004) argue more generally for autopoiesis-and-cognition, the diagnostic is whether the network continues to generate its own conditions of operation.

      This sourceDefends a formal extension of autopoiesis decoupled from biochemical substrate; the diagnostic for autopoietic organization is whether the network continues to generate its own conditions of operation

      Supported in partVerified against the publisher's abstract

      The abstract supplies Bourgine & Stewart's own definition of an autopoietic system as a self-producing network that regulates its boundary conditions, which frames the claim but is a definition, not a stated 'diagnostic'.

      “We propose a modified definition of autopoiesis: “An autopoietic system is a network of processes that produces the components that reproduce the network, and that also regulates the boundary conditions necessary for its ongoing existence as a network.””

      From the publisher's abstract.

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
